What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Number of participants with adverse drug reactions(ADRs) and infections from the first intravitreal(ITV) injection of EYLEA

    Measured: Up to 3 years

  2. Number of participants with serious adverse events (SAEs) and ocular adverse events(AEs) (especially AEs due to ITV injection procedure) from the first ITV injection of EYLEA

    Measured: Up to 3 years

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Number of participants with ADRs, SAEs and ocular AEs ( especially AEs due to ITV injection procedure) in subpopulations of patients background characteristics and status of EYLEA treatments from the first ITV injection of EYLEA

    Measured: Up to 3 years

  2. Mean changes in visual acuity

    Measured: Baseline and 6, 24 or 36 months

  3. Proportion of patients who maintained visual acuity(corresponding to <15 letters of Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study(ETDRS) from baseline) and improved visual acuity(corresponding to >0 letter of ETDRS from baseline)

    Measured: Up to 3 years

  4. Mean changes in visual acuity in subpopulations of patients background characteristics and status of EYLEA treatments

    Measured: Baseline and 6, 24 or 36 months

  5. Number and intervals of ITV injection of EYLEA

    Measured: Up to 3 years

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of participants with adverse drug reactions(ADRs) and infections from the first intravitreal(ITV) injection of EYLEA (time frame: Up to 3 years). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01756248, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
